Yeah...its all about the money. I have mild allergies in the spring that don't really bother me... Last year I did my appointment for my annual in the spring. D

Yeah...its all about the money. I have mild allergies in the spring that don't really bother me... Last year I did my appointment for my annual in the spring. Doctor goes, you have allergies. If I write you a prescription I gotta charge you as a problem visit. I recommend you try over the counter Claritan and if it doesn't help, come back. Now this doctor didn't own the practice, it's a decent size local franchise. Maybe that's their policy. But atleast the doctor told me up front. For my wife...we didn't know till we got the bill. Funny thing is the doctor signed paperwork that my wife did an annual (i get $$ from work if we do annuals)
